In "real" antennas (disregarding "long" antennas that are multiples of a

In "real" antennas radiation is from the ends of the OPEN circuit. How much
from the broadside vs tip top it is shape dependent.

Generally, balls on the end of an antenna seem most useful in reducing or
eliminating corona discharge -- an important issue at higher power levels.

OK

They seem to have little or nothing to do with the function of radiating
signals.

Here are the two possibilities:
1. In charge method - the higher voltage (charge density) the stronger
signal,
2. In field method - I do not know. It seams that the corona discharge
should increase the current. In your field method the stronger current the
stronger signal. Could you comment this?
